      As you obviously exult in our Indian heritage, may I suggest that when you come next to India, please visit Jaipur, and take a look at their blue pottery...their wall plates, door knobs table lamp bases , tiles, fruit bowls and much more.... have a vibrance all their own .Truly our Indian handicrafts can hold their own with the best which the rest of the world has to offer.
      Our craftsmen and women are not getting the support and honour they deserve.

      I grew up in Durban, South Africa in the 1970’s. This reminds me of that time. I loved it and it has been my own design inspiration for many years…this tour made me feel very nostalgic. I just love what you’ve both done … and please - let us know where we find a dress like that?! We’re all dying to know ☺️

    I grew up in Brooklyn, in the ‘40’s to the ‘60’s. These long, narrow tenement apartments were called “railroad” rooms. One room after another front to rear….no doors “except the bathroom”. Our rent in the late forties early fifties…..dad paid $35 month. We were just off the East River….near Buttermilk Channel…..WATER VIEW lol. 12 minutes to lower Manhattan. It’s good to see people fixing up these beautiful old apartments, and caring for them. 💕

    Whoa, it's a small world. I've been binge watching Apartment Therapy videos and never expected to find Abhilasha here. Been following her music (she's also made a lot of music with friends of mine from India) for a while - her voice is as calming and rich as is the apartment.

    I agree with Abhilasha's philosophy. There are so many beautiful things, why always buy new. About 85 to 90% of my 475 sq ft vintage apartment in Tacoma is thrifted, second hand or bought for a bargain price. You have a beautiful home. Good for Joe, receiving Mel's book with his autograph. I love Mel too and I adorned his late wife Anne Bancroft. Thrift on and proud!

It almost looks like someone designed the rooms to be that way and yet they are all pieces that came from difference pre-loved sources !

    I too live in Brooklyn. I found a huge lithograph of Christopher Walken in the trash. It was in perfect condition. It takes up half of my wall and it is the one piece of art that gets the most complements. You never know what you will find around the end of the month when people move out of apartments. I have no shame dragging things back to my Williamsburg apartment that I have owned for the past 30 years. I even get the wood slats of the Ikea beds. I make them into planters for my terrace. Your apartment is nice and cozy. It is a railroad in a building that is either a corner building or one without any other building attached to it. I grew up in a railroad apartment.

      A railroad apartment is one where you have to go through each room to reach another. There is no separate entrance to enter any particular room by itself. It is called a railroad apartment because it is like a railroad car on a train. To get to the front of the train, you have to go through each car.@@richardsanty9063
